About this title

Synopsis

Gathers essays about strategy, leadership, global markets, finance, quality, and business trends

From the Back Cover

Of all the millions of words written on business and management in the past 30 years, some contributions stand out as milestones in management thinking.

Milestones in Management is a unique collection of seminal material, selected and introduced by leading industrialists, journalists and teachers in management. The selections, from books and articles, are the permanent statements along the path of management thinking over the last 30 turbulent years and represent lasting impacts on management thinking.

The book covers key areas - strategy, leadership, globalization, and finance and includes the work of recognized management writers including:
* Alfred Chandler
* Peter Drucker
* Michael Porter
* Kenichi Ohmae

Milestones in Management, backed by McKinsey - one of the world's largest management consultancies - is an essential source of insight and reference for those involved in management, and those who study it.

Store Description

Toby's Books are mainly new or minor shelf wear review copies or new books purchased which (in spite of original optimism) have not been read. Some of the review copies are first edition hard cover and are now difficult to obtain as the bulk of these were sold to libraries. Some books were purchased second hand, some as ex-library stock, but most were purchased second hand with minimal wear and are in surprisingly good condition in spite of twenty or so years on a shelf. Some of my books are only available in the North America - where they were bought on visits to Detroit, Washington, and New York. There is always an element of the subjective in assessments of condition. However, very effort has been made to ensure that the description errs towards the negative rather than the positive. I am able to send photos of any book or journal you may be interested in, as well as other detail. On shipping, I use Abe's default charges which are the lowest. I do not attempt to make a profit on shipping, in fact shipping is often at a loss. Where shipping is considerably above Abe's standard price, my policy is to go halves with the purchaser on the difference. Although Abe gives standard shipping times, please be aware that books to the Southern hemisphere tend to arrive very close to the limit if sent surface.
